I would like to nominate John Sabo for
election as a member of the PKI Member
Section Steering Committee.
John is an experienced computer security
expert whose wisdom have served us well
in the last few years on the PKI MS SC
and before that in the PKI Forum. I have
included a brief CV for John at the end
of this message.
Thanks,
Steve Hanna
